This Friday at 2200, the History Channel show "Human Weapon" will focus
on the Marine Corps Martial Arts Program. Show details are below:

Hosts Bill Duff and Jason Chambers travel to Quantico, Virginia to get a
painful lesson in the combat style that has helped spawn the Marines'
widely feared reputation. They'll shoot, clash, and kick their way
through the Marine Martial Arts Program, the Corps' self-invented
fighting program that borrows over 180 deadly moves from ancient martial
arts around the world. Along the way, they'll learn how Marines used
their hand-to-hand combat and bayonet skills to defeat four German
divisions at the Battle of Belleau Wood in France during WWI; how an
elite unit known as the Marine Raiders fought their way across numerous
Japanese islands during WWII; and they'll hear firsthand how Marines are
putting their combat skills to the test in Afghanistan and Iraq.
